Crossroads

Communion reminds us of God's commitment to come back and restore everything. And to love us and work in us now.

In zombie movies, the living dead are out of place. Single-minded. Fearless. All but unstoppable. Does that describe we who are also free from death?

What looks good may not be. What looks hopeless may hide beauty. Even those who annoy us are loved by God.

God is like sushi. He's different. He's dangerous. And He's meant to be taken raw - as He is - not dressed up with what He's not.

Christianity is like chess. Our opening move is important, but not everything. Commit to a plan of attack. Set up to finish well.

Jesus died to introduce us to Peace. We think of Peace as being related to Circumstances, but Jesus wants us to have the real thing.

Faith is your friend with the crazy, unsafe ideas. But he knows God, and what He's up to. How well do you know Faith?

"Grace.  It's a name for a girl.  It's also a thought that changed the world." -Nichole Nordemann, Grace.She's a friend we need to make and a friend we should probably be taking to our parties.

Why doesn't religion do what it's supposed to? Actually, what IS it supposed to do?

Everyone is a work in progress, but what's the goal? 

What does your life say?

In 1962 President Kennedy challenged the nation to enter the "space race"...and to win it!  Though it cost money, time, resources & lives, the nation rose to occasion and accomplished the "impossible".  Are we still capable of that today?  Is the Church capable of that?  Are we even interested?

It's easy to dismiss someone, harder to believe in them

Made any of your own?

The story of a ruthless enemy who seemingly can't be stopped and will stop at nothing until we are dead.  Can this be our story?

Tranformation is key to our story, but what does that mean and what should it look like?

Every summer at least one "superhero" movie comes out.  And we flock to them! Maybe it's time we make our own.
